Chapter 4:
EsmePOV:
"A triple threat, that's what you get. So don't get lost, or it will cost."
Well I wonder what that could mean… Triple means three, what geographical locations have three some things… It says something about getting lost, so where can you get lost easily… Three, lost, bad... A triangle has three sides…
Aha! The Bermuda Triangle! That's what it is. I quickly grabbed my pack and raced off, only barely noticing that the rest of my family was gone. Well I wish them all luck!
I decided to call in a favor to an old friend. Paul Klous had been a friend of mine for well over a decade. Carlisle had treated his wife when she got deathly sick, and I helped to counsel Paul and his children after she passes away. It was very sad, but Paul and I had gotten very close. Carlisle got jealous, the poor dear. Oh I would miss him these next few days. In this instance it was very lucky for me to know Paul, seeing as he owned his own airplane. A small light craft, it was perfect for this kind of journey! I jumped in the driver's seat of the Mercedes and sped off to Paul's home in Ecuador.
It took me about 10 hours to get there, speeding as I did. I knew I was setting a bad example for the children… but the thrill of the speed was too much to resist in their absence! I pulled into the small driveway and got out of the car as quickly as I *humanly* could. I knocked on the door, the impatience breaking through. I felt bad for that but I really did want to win this thing. Paul opened the door with surprise, but the surprise was immediately replaced with a broad smile. He grabbed my hand gently but firmly and kissed it. He motioned for me to come in side.
Before the questions could start I told him what I needed, I knew he wouldn't ask anything else if I told him that. He didn't, simply saying that he needed to arrange for a babysitter for his kids real quick and then grab his gear. It took about an hour for him to get everything settled. As he kissed his kids goodbye I felt a tugging at my heart. My children... I missed them so much and my loving husband too… Sigh, the quicker this went, the sooner I could see my family. I smiled at that as I urged Paul out the door. It was only a 10 minute drive to the air strip, and then another 15 until we could get in the air.
The plane was noisy and I was thankful that I didn't have to make polite conversation for the four hour flight to Puerto Rico. I was afraid Paul would ask the wrong questions and I didn't like to lie, especially to good friends like him. Thankfully the dark tint of the plane windows kept my secret from being exposed and the flight was long enough that the sun was going down by the time we reached the tiny island. I gave Paul a quick hug, grabbed my bag and loped off to the docks. I found an empty container that was scheduled to leave a week from now, I decided that was good enough and stashed my bag inside. I took out my cell phone, a Ziploc, and the clue, stuffing the cell phone and piece of paper in the Ziploc. Then I put my jacket and long pants in the backpack, hiding it deep in a corner of the storage unit. I put the Ziploc in my shorts pocket and walked to the edge of the dock.
I took a deep unnecessary breath and looked to both sides to make sure the coast was clear before jumping into the warm water.
To Be Continued… Soon
